Adam Back, the co-founder and CEO of Blockstream, is convinced that the identity of Satoshi Nakamoto, the founder of Bitcoin, will always remain a mystery—and that this is a positive thing for Bitcoin.
“Many people have tried to research, look at all the emails, look at all the forum posts, and tried to deduce something from a digital footprint over 15 years, and found nothing,” he said in an exclusive interview with Cointelegraph’s managing editor Gareth Jenkinson.

This sets it apart from most other cryptocurrencies, which could be more easily compared to securities.
